Also they seems to have you sign the DS-156 and 157 at the Medical (St Lukes) Processing Estimates/Stats : Your I-129f was approved in 70 days from your NOA1 date. Your interview took 158 days from your I-129F NOA1 date.

Appt. : 2008-05-20 Interview Date : 2008-07-11 Approved : Yes Oath Ceremony : 2008-08-20 Comments : 1/05/08 - N-400 sent to NSC 1/10/08 - NSC cashes check 1/16/08 - Received NOA1 for N-400. Notice (NOA1) states we should expect to be notified within 450 days. Glad that fee increase gave us the results the USCIS promised! 5/8/08 - FINALLY received biometrics notice for 5/20/08. The USCIS website still does not acknowledge our service center number though and I cannot track any touches or updates. We have also found out that we cannot use the 800 number because it asks for our service center number and since it isn't registered, it hangs up on us. 5/20/08 - Biometrics completed at Denver. In and out in 15 minutes. 6/6/08 - Received interview letter today for Friday, July 11, 2008 @ 10:30am in Denver. 7/11/08 - Marilyn has her interview. Lasts for 17 minutes and she passes with flying colors. 10 for 10 on the questions.

*Notice about estimates: The estimates are based off averages of other members recent experiences
(documented in their timelines) for the same benefit/petition/application at the same filing location.
Individual results may vary as every case is not always 'average'. Past performance does not necessarily
predict future results. The 'as early as date' may change over time based on current reported processing
times from members. There have historically been cases where a benefit/petition/application processing
briefly slows down or stops and this can not be predicted. Use these dates as reference only and do not
rely on them for planning. As always you should check the USCIS processing times to see if your application
is past due.

** Not all cases are transfered
